PE Calanus are a copepod zooplankton sustainably harvested in the pristine Arctic waters at a unique stage of their life cycle using a patented, environmentally friendly method. During this active phytoplankton feeding stage, PE Calanus are naturally bio-encapsulated with essential fatty acids, resulting in a highly nutritious diet.

PE Calanus are great for freshwater and saltwater fish in addition to being an excellent food for corals and other filter-feeding organisms. PE Calanus are instantly recognizable by their brilliant orange coloration stemming from the high levels of astaxanthin and other carotenoid pigments.
